It always makes me sad to see these huge graveyards and all those that have lost their lives. You talked about nostalgia, I have felt a lot of that lately. Getting older makes you understand so many missed opportunities you had to engage in conversation with your parents and others that are now gone. Makes you take a look at your own mortality.

Oh Liz that is it. The life clock continues on. The lost opportunities, the missing loves, the change in ourselves and those we love are sobering. We stay distracted for the most part, but events bring us back to reality.

C. S. Lewis on Do Gooder Tyranny

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be
satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
